The Rise of Korean Entertainment

Chapter 663 Expectation

Song Hye Kyo is an extremely unfamiliar name to Li Menglong. He has hardly heard of this name in the past year or so. It was only through the photos and introduction that Li Zhien found temporarily that he had a preliminary understanding of her. know.

Forget about looks, Li Menglong is not in the mood to pay attention to this now; his status as a top actress doesn't matter, and he won't be complacent just because he had such a girlfriend in the past.

He just tried hard to search for memories related to the other party, but it was still in vain, but Li Menglong's subconscious told him that this woman did have a close relationship with him.

Li Zhien didn't know much about Song Hye Kyo. Back then, because Li Menglong took her feelings into consideration, Li Menglong never brought any woman back, and there were always only the two of them in that home.

Thinking about it now, Li Zhien felt that she was quite selfish at the time, but the more she acted like this, the more affection she felt for Li Menglong. How could she not like such a brother.

As for Song Hye Kyo, she only knew that there was such a number one person, and she didn't even know if she had a romantic relationship with Li Menglong. However, based on her understanding of Li Menglong, she probably still had feelings for him.

From Li Zhien's point of view, her guess is that Song Hye Kyo is still waiting hard for Li Menglong. After all, the closer she is to Li Menglong, the harder it is to leave him completely. If she is a friend, it is almost impossible for her to be a lover.

Without discussing these matters with Li Zhien, Li Menglong called Li Enxi directly. He had gradually grasped the contradictions of some issues: for example, Li Enxi must have known something back then, with their relationship as good friends; and Li Menglong's subconscious Li felt that the collapse of his company was not that simple.

People who have not experienced that era will never know the influence of Blue Love and Winter Sonata. On the most superficial level, Bae Yongjun and Choi Ji-woo can make a lifetime of money in Japan from this TV series. At that time, the two His popularity surpasses almost all Japanese and Korean stars of the same period.

If Blue Life and Death didn't make a lot of money at the time, then Winter Sonata was almost fully owned and copyrighted by the company at that time. Li Menglong couldn't imagine how much this drama earned, but it is conservatively estimated to be over 10 billion. Yes.

A new film and television drama production company, with funds and its own team, Li Menglong couldn't think of why the company fell apart overnight. Even if it was a vicious conflict, it wouldn't be so fast. There would always be a process of boycotting and rejecting several dramas. .

The man's sixth sense told Li Menglong that all this might have something to do with his ex-girlfriend, otherwise what would Li Eunxi and the others be hiding from him? It was obvious that they didn't like Song Hye Kyo.

"Don't ask, I don't know much! Think about it for yourself, do you have the personality to talk to me about emotional matters?" Li Enxi said tiredly when he came up.

Li Menglong thought about it and it made sense: "What about the company? Why did it collapse so suddenly!"

Li Enxi sighed and restored part of what she knew at the time. Simply put, Li Menglong and his company had reached their peak in the TV drama industry at that time, so the entire company was content to move closer to the film industry.

However, they were obviously a little careless. Those were the years when special effects were emerging, so the company spent almost all of its wealth to participate in the production of a movie. However, they had no say, and their qualifications in the film industry were shallow enough. Not to mention they had locked up funds. , anyone with a discerning eye knows that the movie box office will almost never improve.

Although it was a big fall, the entire company was still united and thought it was time to spend money to learn a lesson, so the company changed its goals again and prepared to produce another TV series to fight back.

Li Enxi's story ends here, because the TV series Li Menglong wanted to write after a month of retreat did not appear. At this time, the company whose capital chain was broken was also collectively suppressed by many companies.

Originally, he could still struggle, but Li Menglong seemed to be greatly stimulated at that time, and began to find a good home for everyone, and after arranging Li Zhien's affairs, he went to serve in the military, and the company stopped. .

As for the reason why Li Eunxi and others did not want to see Song Hye Kyo, the main reason was that Song Hye Kyo hardly appeared in front of everyone in the later period, and the fact that Li Menglong suffered such a big blow was probably related to emotional matters. They all believed that Song Hye Kyo was too poor during the most difficult time. Ai Fu kicked Li Menglong.

This explanation is not far-fetched, but Li Menglong always feels that things seem to be more than that simple. The simplest reason is that if Li Menglong can build a company from scratch, he can have a second one. Women with a little bit of discernment should be able to see Li Menglong's ability. .

Taking a step back, we have to wait until Li Menglong completely fails before breaking up. Li Menglong's capital chain was just broken at that time. Even if the movie hits the market, it will make hundreds of millions in revenue. Is there no possibility of a comeback?

There is also the TV series that he is planning to make a comeback. If someone can produce something as high as Winter Sonata, even if his talent is exhausted, he won’t be able to do it so quickly, right? Why was there no script in the end? Why did it end so easily...

Things have reached a deadlock here. Li Menglong will not know what happened that year unless he talks to Song Hye Kyo, but Li Menglong instinctively refuses to meet the other party.

Li Zhien didn't know what to do. She felt that she was quite useless. Back then, she could only watch Li Menglong worry about the company. She thought she could help him now, but it still seemed to be exactly the same as before.

He patted the girl's head gently, indicating that he understood what she meant: "Don't worry too much. In fact, if she doesn't come to me, the matter will be over. Anyway, everyone is living pretty well now!"

"Yeah!" Li Enzhi nodded: "Brother, do you want to come and see my self-composed music?"

Knowing that Li Zhien wanted to divert his attention, Li Menglong smiled in cooperation. The matter was indeed not something he could take the initiative to solve. Let's wait and see what happens next, and be prepared to respond at any time.

Now that he had a temporary idea, Li Menglong didn't care about it, turned around and continued to accompany his sister. It would be a fulfilling thing to make this little girl happy.

However, regardless of Li Menglong being indifferent or even no longer curious, it does not mean that netizens are not curious either. It can be said that the current mainstream topics are almost all around Li Menglong. After all, Li Menglong was praised so highly some time ago.

Sure enough, it makes sense that the higher you stand, the worse you will fall. Li Menglong's current image and the image he was established in the past are completely two extremes, especially now that he is labeled as always being in chaos and always giving up.

However, not many people were sober in the turmoil, and even many long-cherished wishes began to sour because Li Menglong couldn't focus on guarding Girls' Generation. This was the original sin.

Some of the extended topics were also mentioned. In theory, Li Menglong's character and his works are completely different things, but now someone has forcibly connected the two.

The third episode has not yet aired, and Wei Sheng, who has just achieved incredible ratings, is the first to be criticized. Although there is not much evidence, they do not want to be reasonable. They just say it is ugly. Everyone has their own opinions anyway. aesthetic.

Even Wei Sheng is like this. As you can imagine Li Menglong's other works, now it is the Baeksang Arts Awards organizing committee's turn to have a headache. They feel that they owed Li Menglong in their previous life.

When I was nominated, I caught up with the turmoil in Room 7, and now I am involved again. If it was difficult to recover at that time, then the awards have not yet been awarded. No one knows whether Li Menglong's Room 7 and Please Answer will be affected.

Since it was selected as a candidate and even a favorite to win the award at one time, it didn't matter if it was given the award. But judging from the current popularity, netizens will not consider anything professional. As long as the Baeksang Organizing Committee dares to give it, there will definitely be people who dare to accuse it of being shady.

The chaotic public opinion environment has caused many people in the entertainment industry who were not paying attention to get involved in these news again. However, the strange thing is that none of the three protagonists Li Menglong, Song Hye Kyo and Girls' Generation spoke out, and there was no official official refutation of the rumors.

It's just that it's different from the cold treatment method in the past. This time it's like a volcano is accumulating energy, just waiting for the final outlet. And this day can be foreseen that it won't be too long, because the Baeksang Arts Awards All three parties are going.

Because no new news broke out, everyone could only continue to discuss the original topic. Li Menglong is now a director who relies on luck and plagiarism. Simply put, if a three-year-old child were sitting there, these works would be praised. Photograph it.

Countless ordinary people and even experts have concluded that Li Menglong will never produce any more reliable works. This group of people is not unreasonable. On the one hand, seeing that Li Menglong’s reputation is so bad now, it is estimated that his whitewash will be greatly affected in the future. .

Furthermore, Li Menglong’s starting point is too high. Even if it is normal, can he still make a movie worth over 10 million? He is filming a TV series called Youwei Sheng. Can you please tell me if it has such phenomenal ratings?

Lee Mong-ryong, who has been criticized in all aspects from his character to his works, seems to be protected only in terms of friendship. Kim Jong-kook, Yoo Jae-seok and others cannot say much else, but they praise Lee Mong-ryong's character.

But this is not a problem for all-powerful netizens. Look at the so-called brothers of Li Menglong's group of men. Which one is not a leader in various industries? Does Li Menglong know the most ordinary brothers who do not help him in any way?

This argument of smearing for the sake of smearing has actually received a lot of support. Those who have some sense will ask: Do you know Li Menglong's ordinary friends? Anyone whose name you have heard of is naturally a celebrity. Is this because Li Menglong is snobbish?

But these are meaningless, or there are too few rational voices, but many people are also curious about what Li Menglong, who is dark and full of bad water, is doing?
